Liu Fenfang smiled and said with emotion, "Sister-in-law, I know your kindness and I will remember your kindness in my heart!"
The two chatted for a while, and then Zhang Meng went to the homes of Tao Hong and the other two and gave each of them a pound of meat.
There was still a pound of meat left, so Zhang Meng went straight upstairs in her house.
After chatting with those four families just now, Zhang Meng has a general understanding of the family upstairs.
It is said that Zhu Xiaoqian's parents' home is in a nearby village. Perhaps because of this reason, Zhu Xiaoqian often goes back to her parents' home. Therefore, she doesn't chat much with the wives of soldiers in the military region. Over time, everyone has forgotten about her.
Zhang Meng stood at the door of Jia's house and knocked. Not long after, the door was opened.
Zhu Xiaoqian looked at the person standing at the door, was stunned for a moment, frowned and asked, "Is there something wrong?"
Knowing that this person didn't chat with people from the military region, Zhang Meng didn't take her attitude to heart. After grinning at her, he raised the meat in his hand and said, "Comrade Zhu, right? It's like this. Thank you so much for what you did today. Here's a pound of meat. You must accept it!"
Zhu Xiaoqian glanced at the pork in her hand, but didn't reach out to take it. She said in a light tone, "You don't have to thank me. I just saw this and said a few words. I can't take this meat. You can take it back!"
When she came up, Zhang Meng had guessed the other person's attitude, so she didn't get angry. She continued to carry the pound of meat and said, "To you, this favor is just a few words, but to me, it's a great favor, saving me a pig! If you don't accept it, then I can only pay for it. How about the price of a pig?"
Zhu Xiaoqian was stunned. She never expected that this female comrade could be so shameless.
"Okay, I'll take this pound of meat." After saying that, Zhu Xiaoqian hesitated for a moment before saying, "Thank you for the meat!"
Zhang Meng immediately smiled and placed the meat in front of her. Seeing her take it, she said with satisfaction, "Is that right? Oh, by the way, I seemed to smell a sweet scent on you just now. Did you encounter any difficulties?"
Zhu Xiaoqian, whose complexion had improved a little, turned cold again after hearing her question. "I don't know what you're talking about. If you don't have anything else to do, go back. My house is a bit messy right now, so it's not convenient for me to entertain you!"
Seeing how quickly her expression changed, Zhang Meng had no choice but to continue, "Okay, I'll go back first! But if you..."
Before he could finish his words, the door in front of him suddenly slammed shut.
Zhang Meng touched her nose, shook her head and smiled, then turned and went downstairs.
At noon, Gu Mingtai went home for lunch.
There were meat and vegetables on the table, and it looked very rich.
Halfway through the meal, Zhang Meng brought up the incident of a little wild boar being left at her doorstep this morning.
"Did your grandfather give it to her?" Grandma Zhang immediately thought of her dead old man.
Zhang Meng rolled her eyes. "Grandma, this is simply impossible. When the three of us were almost starving to death, my grandfather never brought us any food. Now that our family is doing well, it's even more impossible. I don't think what you said is right."
Grandma Zhang opened her mouth, wanting to say something good for her dead old man, but after thinking about it, she couldn't think of a single word.
Because my granddaughter is right!
"Was it sent by that guy Zhong Dayong?" Gu Mingtai asked after eating a piece of pork belly.
Zhang Meng shook her head. "It can't be him. I asked the soldier guarding the station, and he said no one came looking for me, so it can't be him."
Grandma Zhang then spoke up again, "But you know what, this wild boar meat is really fragrant! It's delicious."
Zhang Meng took a bite and nodded. "The meat is quite fragrant, but I still prefer venison. The venison I bought from Zhong Dayong last time wasn't enough. I wish I could eat it again."
After hearing what she said, Gu Mingtai immediately said, "If you like it, I'll go to the mountains next time and hunt a deer for you."
Zhang Meng laughed out loud. "You thought this deer was so easy to hunt? But being able to eat it once is pretty good. Never mind. I can't even eat meat before, and now I have meat to eat, but I'm still picky. It seems grandma is right. I've had it easy for so long that I've become more and more picky."
The family chatted and laughed for half an hour before finishing their lunch.
After lunch, Gu Mingtai rested at home for half an hour and then returned to the army to continue his work.
